Connect ECONNREFUSED after Mongod community 6.0 installation

I am sorry to hear that. I can interpret error messages as they are almost the same in all operating systems. I just can’t confirm what happens on macos.
I have found the following topic with pretty much the same problem. the difference I can see is how he tries to start the service. It might be related so check it out if you haven’t
HELP: Brew mongodb-community@5.0 error [MacOS] - Ops and Admin / Installation & Upgrades - MongoDB Developer Community Forums

it again has this socket file problem and solves it. check the commands they used.

If you still fail to have a solution, you may tag “Stennie” from that post for a look at it here. to tag someone, start typing “@” symbol and the name. I hope he has an idea.
